Roller security grilles in Dingwall

Roller security grilles in Dingwall: what will it cost?

Our guide range for roller security grilles in Dingwall is £1,495 to £4,995 plus VAT (£1,794 to £5,994 inc VAT) per opening, including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.

A roller security grille is a curtain of linked aluminium or steel tubes that coils into a box above the opening. Lowered, it gives an open-mesh barrier you can see through; raised, it leaves the full width clear with nothing parked at the sides.

What you can specify

Mill, anodised or powder-coated finishes
Brick-bond or straight link patterns in aluminium or steel
Coil box above the opening, internal or external
Safety edges, manual override and anti-drop devices on powered grilles
Guide channels fixed to the face or into the reveal
Manual spring-balanced, crank or electric operation

Fitting in Dingwall and nearby

We arrange surveys and fitting in Dingwall and across the IV15 postcode district, as well as in nearby Inverness (11 miles) and Nairn (21 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

The Highlands are one of the most sparsely populated parts of the UK, with Inverness as the main centre and many remote homes, holiday lets and small-town shops.

Common openings for roller security grilles:

Wide internal openings and lobbies
Car park and stairwell openings
Shops with deep heads above the glazing
Counters and kiosks

Getting the right roller grille for your building

Head space

The coil box needs height above the opening. If there is no room inside, a retractable grille is usually a better fit.

Inside or outside

Inside a shopping centre or behind glazing the grille is protected. External roller grilles normally need planning permission.

What the rules say in Scotland

Scotland

Electric roller grilles

Electric grilles need a suitable supply wired to BS 7671, with some work needing a building warrant in Scotland. Powered grilles should have working safety devices and regular maintenance.

Grilles across exits in business premises

In Scotland, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 make the duty holder keep escape routes and exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be open whenever the premises are occupied.

Roller security grilles in Dingwall: questions

Do you cover Inverness as well as Dingwall?

Yes. As well as Dingwall, we can arrange surveys in nearby Inverness, Nairn and Aviemore, and elsewhere in Highland.

Do electric roller grilles need servicing?

Yes. Powered grilles should be inspected and maintained regularly, including the motor, safety devices and manual override, so they stay safe to use.

Do roller grilles need planning permission?

Internal roller grilles generally do not. External ones normally do, and councils often prefer open-mesh grilles to solid shutters where something external is allowed.

Can a roller grille be fitted inside a shop window?

Yes, where there is enough clear height above the window for the coil and guides. It is a neat option because nothing is left at the sides.
